Gunner: That can't be true. Look how peaceful he looks! *Enemy shoots at us after 30 seconds* Pilot: Enemy man at one-eight Gunner: *Ratatatatatatatatatata tatatatatata* I hate AI gunners :c

Hoping Arma 3 fix the horrible AI.

well imho, it doesn't really matter anyway since arma is best played online.

Game tonight it is! :v:

When?

[QUOTE=angelangel;30872398]well imho, it doesn't really matter anyway since arma is best played online.[/QUOTE] There are not many gamemodes that don't use bots in any way.

[QUOTE=WeltEnSTurm;30872705]There are not many gamemodes that don't use bots in any way.[/QUOTE] So long as the bots aren't on your side. :v:

So since I've already got Arma 2 on Steam, buying OA will essentially mean I have Combined Ops and will be able to play with everyone?

So now that everyone is playing regular ArmA 2 again, are people hosting servers for it?

[QUOTE=Watevaman;30872880]So since I've already got Arma 2 on Steam, buying OA will essentially mean I have Combined Ops and will be able to play with everyone?[/QUOTE] Yes. But you'll have to start steam as administrator, ArmA 2, then Combined Operations. After that, it doesn't matter if you start it as admin.

[QUOTE=n0cturni;30872931]So now that everyone is playing regular ArmA 2 again, are people hosting servers for it?[/QUOTE] Since when did we start playing ArmA 2 again? Combined Ops is still the shit.

If you get it somewhere else then you may or may not have problems with getting Combined Operations to work properly, it's a tricky system.

Alright, so picking up OA on Steam now. Which DLCs are worth it, both or just one or the other?

Damn strange, in OA I get severe lag at the main menu, though for some reason, when i reduce the affinity to 1 core, i get much less lag. I could install AMD DCO, but I'm on windows 7 which supposedly is optimised.

So I might get ArmA CO Is it good huehuehue sorry you prolly get like thousands of these posts when ArmA goes on sale

I need an ACE Co-op Server to play on, Combined Ops or not I don't care. I just need to get my urban combat on [editline]3rd July 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Watevaman;30872880]So since I've already got Arma 2 on Steam, buying OA will essentially mean I have Combined Ops and will be able to play with everyone?[/QUOTE] You just right click on AO and click Launch Combined Operations. I think you only have to do that once

Add me on steam if you are playing a game any time soon.

[QUOTE=Louis;30873217]So I might get ArmA CO Is it good huehuehue sorry you prolly get like thousands of these posts when ArmA goes on sale[/QUOTE] Well it is pretty useless to ask THIS THREAD if ArmA is good. But get CO, you will regret it if you just buy Arma 2 or OA.

[QUOTE=Tark;30873266]BAF moreso than PMC, I personally love them. [editline]3rd July 2011[/editline] Are you running it multithreaded?[/QUOTE] Not that I'm aware. I'm even using "-cpucount=2 -exThreads=1" in the launch otptions as reccomended in this thread. [url]http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=101124[/url] But I'm still having to manually set it to just one core.

If you don't have either Arma 2 or AO, I think right now Combined Ops is just $5 additional dollars than if you bought just one, so why not throw down the extra $5 and get the full experience

[QUOTE=TheTalon;30874043]If you don't have either Arma 2 or AO, I think right now Combined Ops is just $5 additional dollars than if you bought just one, so why not throw down the extra $5 and get the full experience[/QUOTE] If I can find some money I'm going to try to get the combined ops pack today.

I just bought CO for $44 the other day :( oh well it's worth it.

Here are a few shots from the 15th MEU server before Operation Arrowhead came out [IMG]http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y37/SaborWolf/arma22010-05-0518-04-46-45.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y37/SaborWolf/arma22010-05-0518-06-54-41.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y37/SaborWolf/arma22010-05-0518-13-21-90.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y37/SaborWolf/arma22010-05-0518-08-14-65.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y37/SaborWolf/arma22010-05-0721-29-21-93.jpg[/IMG] Flying in and assaulting a small side mission with a few guys, I don't remember what the last shot is of

Chenarus is so much prettier than those bland desert maps.

The only thing I don't like about Operation Arrowhead is the weapon selection. I don't want those stupid SCARS and MK16's and shit, I want my damn M16A2/4 and M4A1/3's Thank fuck for ACE. Been making me happy since the first OFP

Hey guys, I just got a new computer and it has made playing CO infinitely better. 10k viewdistance on chernarus, max settings, comp doesn't even give a fuck.
